HIPS

HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) is a rigid, cost-effective general-purpose thermoplastic modified with rubber to give useful impact resistance without the cost of an engineering resin. We stock virgin grades from Kumho Petrochemical and Dioki alongside our own repro range, across a range of melt flow indices to suit a wide variety of moulding applications.

HIPS KUMHO 425 MFI 10

A general-purpose high impact polystyrene grade from Kumho Petrochemical with an MFI of around 10. Offers a practical balance of impact strength, stiffness and processability for standard injection moulding applications.

Typical propertiesMFI approximately 10 g/10min; good impact strength and dimensional stability typical of this HIPS grade family; opaque/white appearance suited to further colouring.
ApplicationsAppliance housings and liners, point-of-sale displays, general injection moulded components.

HIPS DIOKI 810 MFI 8

A general-purpose HIPS grade from Dioki with an MFI of around 8, offering a slightly lower flow than higher-MFI alternatives for applications needing a touch more melt strength or thicker section control.

Typical propertiesMFI approximately 8 g/10min; representative impact and stiffness balance for a general-purpose HIPS grade.
ApplicationsPackaging, refrigeration liners, general moulded components.

HIPS Repro Black MFI 10

Our own reprocessed HIPS, supplied black, with an MFI of around 10 — a cost-effective, lower-footprint alternative to virgin material for less critical applications.

Typical propertiesMFI approximately 10 g/10min; representative properties for a general-purpose HIPS grade; consistency maintained through our own quality-checking process.
ApplicationsNon-critical mouldings, internal components, general-purpose applications where a repro material is suitable.
